Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How you spend your time is more important than how you spend your money.

If you blow too hard and too fast, the balloon pops and likewise the relationship breaks. But if you take things slowly and let the balloon of love stretch on its own, it grows into a huge, prosperous balloon, full of love. Also, if you don't push the relationship at all, or at least hold it at the same level it was at, the air will flow out of the balloon, deflating it, and your love will shrivel up and become flat & lifeless. So when you are in love, push the relationship forward slowly and gently and the balloon will grow comfortably into a strong, immense love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59478]]></link><description><![CDATA[Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They appeal to people who want something that's going to last and survive the elements and at the same time ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42573]]></link><description><![CDATA[They appeal to people who want something that's going to last and survive the elements and at the same time make a strong fashion statement when paired with jeans or a skirt.

And until we understand the Gospel, the good news about our brother-king -- until we understand Him, until we have His Spirit, promised so freely to them that ask it -- all the Epistles, the words of men who were full of Him, and wrote out of that fullness, who loved Him so utterly that by that very love they were lifted into the air of pure reason and right, and would die for Him, without two thoughts about it, in the very simplicity of no choice -- the Letters, I say, of such men are to us a sealed book. Until we love the Lord so as to do what He tells us, we have no right to an opinion about what one of those men meant; for all they wrote is about things beyond us. The simplest woman who tries not to judge her neighbor, or not to be anxious for the morrow, will better know what is best to know, than the best-read bishop without that one simple outgoing of his highest nature in the effort to do the will of Him who thus spoke.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He makes himself ridiculous who is for ever repeating the same mistake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50246]]></link><description><![CDATA[He makes himself ridiculous who is for ever repeating the same mistake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's a step in the direction of releasing all Palestinian prisoners.
